Part of the training crew, ready to go. I left my turnout coat off on the ride up and haven't pulled it on yet.
A shot from above the main area of the fire. As you can see, the whole complex is built on a hill. Made rolling hose easier, but climbing up and down from the hose trailer - which is parked beyond and below the trees in the background - was a little tiring.
The backside of the complex.
This is probably the ground floor room where the fire started. There's debris on the camera lens and water pouring down from above.
Signs of fire damage are visible through these third story windows. Holes may be cut in the roof during the fire to ventilate the building of smoke, heat, steam, and toxic gases, but it looks like the fire did its own ventilating here.
A broken water pipe still pours water into the burned out building, hours after the fire was extinguished.
Back at the station, hoses are washed through this hydrant-driven hose washer, then hung in a three story tower to dry (bottom pic).
Looking down the hose tower from the top floor.
